Happy Monday, friends! Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Names in American History) for Monday, April 25, 2022 (Season 38, Game 161):
Capable of freighting about 180 tons of cargo, in 1624 it was in disrepair & appraised at a total value of 128 pounds
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Michael Graff, a mascot from Eastvale, California
Jessie Francis, a mental health therapist from Marietta, Georgia
Mattea Roach, a tutor from Toronto, Ontario, Canada (14-day total: $320,081)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Ken Jennings continues his hosting stint this week and next as our Canadian 14-day champion Mattea Roach nears some more milestones. She’s already 10th all-time in regular-play winnings and with a good game today she’ll break into the top 25 if tournaments are included. Also, 21 correct responses today will put her at a career total of 400. We’re also at the point of the run where just hearing about a 14-game chat will be intimidating to challengers. (Imagine thinking you’ve avoided Amy Schneider, just to meet Mattea.) Michael and Jessie are surely hoping that they weren’t too intimidated today!
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is the Mayflower?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2022 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The Mayflower was Christopher Jones’ private ship which was hired to take the Pilgrims in September 1620 to the New World. While the intended destination was Northern Virginia, the ship made landfall in Massachusetts. Jones himself died in 1622 and the 1624 appraisal mentioned in the clue was for probate purposes. The ship was described as being “in ruins” and only valued at its scrap value—128 pounds, 8 shillings, and fourpence.

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Viewers are reminded that failing to phrase in the form of a question is a warning offense in the Jeopardy! round and only a penalty in Double Jeopardy!.
- At 406, Mattea moves to 14th all-time in terms of number of correct responses on the show; Arthur Chu sits 13th at 411.
- Mattea moves to 21st all-time in terms of winnings on the show (including tournaments) Arthur Chu is also next for her on this list, with $397,200.
